MEDICAL SCIENCES, STATISTICS Correction for “Elevated cerebrospinal fluid cytokine levels in tuberculous meningitis predict survival in response to dexamethasone,” by Laura J. Whitworth, Rajan Troll, Antonio J. Pagán, Francisco J. Roca, Paul H. Edelstein, Mark Troll, David M. Tobin, Nguyen Hoan Phu, Nguyen Duc Bang, Guy E. Thwaites, Nguyen Thuy Thuong Thuong, Roger F. Sewell, and Lalita Ramakrishnan, which published March 3, 2021; 10.1073/pnas.2024852118 (Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 118, e2024852118).
The authors note that Fig. 3 appeared incorrectly. Specifically, in Fig. 3B, the significance bars did not correctly align with the comparisons indicated. The corrected figure and its legend appear below. The online version has been corrected.
Fig. 3.
Cytokine levels in survivors and nonsurvivors. (A) Cytokine levels in patients who survived (S, n = 248) versus those who died (D, n = 57); (B) separated by genotypes into non-TT (deaths, n = 57, survivors, n = 232) and TT (all survived, n = 16). Magenta lines indicate geometric means. Asterisks indicate probability that right-hand group values are significantly greater than the left (* ≥ 0.95, ** ≥ 0.99, *** ≥ 0.999, **** ≥ 0.9999). Comparisons performed for each cytokine: Non-TT dead vs. survived and non-TT survived vs. TT survived. Cytokine levels between non-TT dead and TT survived were not compared.
